🚀 NASA Space Apps Challenge Prep & Team Formation Day!

The NASA Space Apps Challenge is the largest global hackathon on Earth—and it’s right around the corner!

Using open NASA data, teams from around the globe work together to solve real-world problems on Earth and in space.

Since the main hackathon takes place on November 14th–15th (the weekend after this Meetup), we are getting together to get a head start, form teams, and start brainstorming!

💡 What We’ll Do

• Explore Challenges: Walk through the official list of NASA challenge prompts.
• Form Teams: Find collaborators who share your interests and skill set.
• Prep & Research: Start early brainstorming and research so you can hit the ground running on hackathon weekend.
